Sadly my first post on here surrounds the negative issue of burglary. Like many on here, I should point out that since being in SE23 since 2009 I can only describe Forest Hill as magnificent, so the experience of being burgled a few weeks ago was something unusual

Seems my experience was a common one - rear of the house, windows smashed in (Devonshire Road). Quite how no one noticed someone mounting the fence on a Sunday afternoon, and smashing in the window is truly remarkable

Anyway Fairlawn, Dartmouth Arms, Hob, St Davids Cafe, ELL, Nature Reserve and now membership to the community blog. Too many positives about SE23 outweighing this one off negative event!
